I don’t normally like books written in the second person, but once I settled into it, it felt like I was having coffee with a friend. Some parts literally made me LOL and others got me choked up. It’s a good book.

Loved this book - read the back half in one night, unable to put it down, crying and laughing. The afterword by the author is also a delight, so don’t skip it!
